3CB Required mods in 1 easy download


Problem is mods get updated all the time as well so you'd have to keep updating the file :P

I didn't think about that last night.

Batz has a solution to this - Arma3Sync repositories. We can create another repo that contains various non-required mods. Using A3Sync you can then sync your mods with whatever mods the repo has. The only drawback is that we'll still have to manually update individual mods as and when they're updated. Who do we know that loves to horde all the mods? Enter - Serjames :)

Yep it's a job I'm happy to do, Ideally Batz, Jamie etc just need to show me how to setup the repo etc and where on the server to hold the mods and I will get to work.

Right oh, well this solves the big problem of "people having to downloads loads of stuff" as if its simple syncing we can bring more variety to the Pub server with diff opfor etc?

Well, not so much. I wish it were as easy as that but hey - people are lazy (like me). The more mods we have, the longer the downloads are, and the harder it is to keep everything up to date. The less mods on the public server, the better ;)

Do all the mods have to be set up in Steam launch parameters

I would use Arma3Sync mate - very quick and easy to use.

Yes, but it's very easy to manage; you create a "3CB Profile" in Arma Sync with all the mods in, then have another "vanilla" profile with boring gameplay...
